alnng this principal arterial.
Background
Over ttie last several years therc bave been a significanc numbcr of accidents at intersections
along I3rnadway, due iliainly to dhe current 4-lanc configuration and the lacl: nf visibility for
eastbound and westbound left-tuming traffia Typically the rate of "accidenhs per million
entering vehicles," or AceJtTEV, is used to compare the total number of accidents to the
traffic volumcs at sny particular location. An Acc/A4EV rate greater than 1.0 indicates a
problem that should be adciresscd.
One way to address this issue is to recon.figure Broadway Avenue tn a 3-lane section. This
allows left-tuming traffic to get out of the through lanc wllile Nvaiting for an opening in on-
' , coming 7affic, thus reducing the potenrial for rear-end collisions. It also provides improved
visibility of on-coming traffc for left-turns at 'tntersections. This significantly reduces the
r_ollision potential at cross streets.
The following table highlights some of the difFerences bctween a 4-lane street and a 3-lane
street.

Industries Contractor's License as adequate for small pavement patches.
2. Establishes a time frame for the duration of an Obstruction Permit that accounts for the
winter closure of the local asphalt plants.
3. Substitutes standard language into this Article reflecting the City's current method of
enforcement for civil violations.
The amendments are shown underlined with strikeouts where appropriate in the attached draft
copy of SVMC Ordinance No 06-015. •
A State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Checklist was completed by Building'Official Scholtens .
and a Determination of Non Significance (DNS) was accomplished by Communiry Development

AGCNDA 1TEM TITLE: First Rcading, Proposed Ordinance 06-016 Time Warnee Franchise . GUVElLYING LEGISI.ATIQN: RCW 35A.47.040
Y171+:VIOUS COUNCTL ACTION TAI{EN: Presented to the Council as an information only
itein on May 23, 2006. Sludy session item June 6, 2006.
BACKGROUND: Staff was contacted in 2005 by Time-VJarncr 1 elccom of Waslungton (Time-
Warner) about negotiating a franchise agrecment whereby Time-Warner could place fibcr optic
cable in the City right-of-way (RONV).
In the course of the negotiations, I had numerous discussions with the staff attoniey about different provisions in the proposed franchise agreement I sent them. The drafl I sent was, in
~ essence, a copy o£ what had been adopted for OneEighty, Columbia and EM_AN NEtworks.
Based on our discussions, I took a very close look at the language. Based on somc comments by
Time-Wamer's attorney, and based in part on my own analysis, there are some proposcd changes
to what staff has previously Presented to you as the form fiber franchise agreement.
To avoid conFusion, Iwill idcntify each substantive change and explain in summary fashion why staff is suggesting a change is warranted.
Section 4- Subsection 1- The primary cbange would be a reduction in rescrvcd capacity
from four dark strands (two pair) to two strands for use by the City wherever needecl for use by
the City where it passes a City facility for public purposes. The reasqn for the reduction is that
twn strands would provide a tremendous sunount of bandw-idth for the City, most likely more than it would need within the life of the franchise. Purthermorc, having the reserved bandwidth
coinmitted to the City means that a fber company Nvould not be able to use it for fnancial
purposes.
Sectiou 4- Subsection 3- Federal law prohibits municipalitics from requiruig
franchising businesses to provide things to the municipality that arc unrelatcd to the management
of the ROW. Thc other attorney originally objected to the requirement of four fibers at a rate
substantially below their market rate. Based on some mutual consiaerations, such as the '
reduction in the number of fibers, and a tentative agreement that at such time as Time-Wacner
exhausts all othcr capacity Nvithin the fiber bundle that the City may be accessing that the City ,
will increase its payment rate to the market rate, we werE able to tentatively resolve the issue. If
implemented, this would represent a tuuque tertn for Time-Watner in all of the franchises it has
f~ across the country. Part of the reason they were vvilling to look at doing this is the potcntial
impact ihrough use on their systcm. It Nvas important for thetn that the City does not have any
utilities such as water or sewer, does not have its own fire department, does not have schools,
and does not have its oAm police. Based on these factors, Time-Wamcr detcrmined that any
system thcy construct in Spokane Valley would not be heavily impacted by our use. Another
critieal factor was that the City not use the fibers, or allow anyone else to use the fibers granted _
to the City, for any service that would compEte with Time-Warner.
Section 7- I7CW 35.99 provides some rulcs for what cities can and cannot require fYOm
franchisees. This reference occurs several more times, and the explanation will not he repeated.
Section 11, second paragraph - NVhen Tune-NVarner requested this, 1 could not come up
with a compelling reason against the change.
Section 13 - The City changed soine of its regulations regarding use of the ROW since
the f.ust fiber franchises were adopted, and this language most accurately reflects what the City
•
wants to see happen, which is that the franchisee follow our currently adopted codes to fix acry
problem.
Section 26 - There are several changes in this section. Most represent sotne attempt at
clarifying ehe rights and responsibilities of the parties. The last sentEnce includes a statement
that franchisee will indemnify the Cily for any pollution damagc resultuig from hazardous
substances, but only as locig as any applicable statute of limitations. I thinlc that is reasonablc,
since the City would not face any liability after the espiration of any statute oF lunitations
anyway.
Section 30 - It seemed reasonable to strike this provision since we are generally only
concerned with Exisling structures. Further dowm Section 30, we retain the right to requcst
"potential improvement plans" if we think Nve will actually necd them.
Section 31 - This change makes the fYanchise language consistent with our currently
adopted provisions rcgarding excavation, and will be flexible for future changes in those
regulations.
Section 35 - Tlus change reflects a recognition that it may take a franchisee some time to
plan for, and execute, a change in location of facilities in the event of a street vacation. This is
likely to be a moot point, as the City grants street vacations subject to any existing property right,
which would include a franehise.
Section 36 - This change represents the more eommon view of how potentiFtl liability
may be apportioned as betwcen two similarly-situated parties.
Section 37 - The revised lan;uage for insurance liabilily reflects updaled language that
Washington Cities Instuazice Authority (`VCIA), the City's insurer, recently requested go into
contracts entered inlo by the City. -
Section 38 - This language reflccts a recognition that it gets expensive for an entity to
continually obtain bonds to work in the ROW each time it wants to do a project. This would -
ensure ttiat an appropriate bond is available for the life of the franchise to cover any non-
performanee by the franchisee. It provides a higher level of insurance for the City, and is less
expensive for thc franchisee. I he City will also have the option to requirc a larger bond in the
unlikely event of a project that could have a repair requirement highEr than $25,000.
Section 40 - Tlus rcpresents a desire by Tixne-Warner that the eaisting provisions apply
to both parl:ies eyually. In its most basie form, this section statcs that each party will comply
with all applicable local, state and federal laws ihat may apply to the franchise, and that the ,
franchise can conform to changes in those laws. This reflects a requirement in federal law on
telecommunications franchising. ~J
Section 42 - This change could be argucd as being more reasonable from the standpoint
~ of commercial reality. It also reflects language that providcs adequate protection for the City.
Scction 52 - This reflects a rcquirement existing in FedEral telecommunications law that a
. municipaliry not agrec to terms with vne franchisee that are materially different than those
agreed to with another franclusee. Timc-Wanier refers to this as a"most favored nation" clause,
as did the City at various times three ycars ago in contract discussions. Again, this is a
restatement of a Federal requirement and appcars reasonable.
IJ'approved, this will have .sPill-over effect on the other three fiber franchises in lhat will need to
he amended to conform to these changes. 1 think tltis cun be accomplished by submitting an
addendum to the Council far consideratian and approvul to Columbiu, OneEighly und EMAN
providing all of the.se changes. 1 would notify each of the three ahead of time of the potential
change.s. If these changes are approved by the Council, each of those three ivould be brought
fonvard separutely, but likely at the same meeting. Fuch francliisee would theri need to agree in
wriling to the charrgetl conditions.
OPTION5: Recommend changes to thc proposed ciraft Tinie-Warncr franchise.

second reading at a subsequent meeting."

AGENDA ITEM TITLE : Motion Consideration: County Sewer Memorandum Of Understanding
Amendment
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: .
, PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Adoption of the 2006 Budget, which includes funds
for full-width street paving associated with Spokane County's 2006 Sewer Construction
Program. Informational Memo presented at the Council's retreat on February 11, 2006,
Informational Memo to Council on March 28, 2006, Informational Memo to Council on June 6,
2006
BACKGROUND: Last week staff provided to Council an informational memo providing an
~ update on the status of the costs for the sewer paveback projects. At that time two of the three
County sewer projects had been bid (Veradale Heights, Electric RR) and an estimate was
provided for the third project (Vera Terrace). The Vera Terrace Project bid opening was on
Wednesday, June 7th.
In the first two bids costs to the city for full-width paving and drainage improvemenfswas higher
than originally anticipated. For example the Electric Railroad Project saw a 50% increase in 6id
prices for all Stormwater related facilities compared to 2005 bid prices.
The previous informational memo stated that staff would bring back to Council a proposed
amendment to the MOU once we had the final costs.
The following table shows the original approved budget and revised costs based on this year's
actual bids. These revised costs include additional structures added during construction and
, consultant design and inspection services. The projeGt shortfall for pavebaclc and drainage
facilities is shown at the bottom.
Project Approved MOU Budget ~ Revised Costs based on Bids
Paveback ~ Drainage ~ Paveback ~ Drainage
Electric Railroad I $77,000 I $52,000 I $87,369 I $76,000
Vera Terrace - I $241,000 I $41,500 I$261,815 I $43,072
Veradale Heights I $357,000 I $37,000 I$430,256 I $45,000
Contingency I $100,000 ~ $19,500 I $95,560 I $35,928
~ Total Costs I $775,000 ~ $150,000 I$875,000 I $200,000
~ Shortfall ~ $100,000 ~ $50,000
The additional $100,000 in paveback costs can come from the Street Capital Project Fund
(303), Other Preservation Projects line item. There is $1,033,843 currently budgeted in that line
item. We have decided to defer all presenration projects from that line item this year until the '.~✓j
Street Master Plan is completed in 2007. This will allow us to use the funds as determined by
the new Street Master Plan. The funds in the preservation line item remaining from 2006 can
be rolled over into 2007.
The additional drainage related costs can come from the Stormwater Management Fund (402),
which has $350,000 budgeted for Capital Outlay. There are sufficient funds in this line item ta
cover these sewer projects costs.
OPTIONS: Approve, disapprove or provide staff with further direction.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Move to approve the Amended Memorandum of
Understanding Between the City of Spokane Val(ey and Spokane County for Pavement
Replacement and Drainage Improvements in the 2006 Sewer Coristruction Program in the
additional amount of $150,000, and authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the
agreement.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Funds are available in the 2006 Street Capital Project Fund
and Stormwater Management Fund.

I. EXECUTTVE SUMMARY
Columbia Telccomuiuiucations Corporation ("CTC") conducted an inspection of the cable system
in the franchise area scrved by Comcast Conuuunications in the City of Spokane Valley,
Wasluugton frocn April 19 - 20; 2006. Tt115 I~'.V1eR' included an inspection of the hcadend,
clectrical testing af the system, and inspection of portions of the physical plant.
Thc purpose of our assign.menl was lo determinc if the cable systein as operated by Comcast
Contmunications mcets the ternis of the technical require•ments of the Cable Tclevision Fra.ncluse
Aereement and ta deterniine if the ncrivork is performing at or abave the performance levels
defined by the Federal Commwiications Commission.
1.1 Adequacv of the Overall Picturc Oualitv
Our examination and quantitativc tneasurement of the picture quality of the individual cable
channels at the headend and at four tests points loc.ated in selected ncighborhoods of the City
verified that the cable system provides cxcellent picture qualiry on all television broadcast; analog
satcllite and satzllite delivered digital video services. We found that the public, educational, and
government chacuiels carried on the basic tier werE delivered to subscribers Nvith quality that was
c;omparable to the commercial broadcast sen=ic;es.
A11 of the individual channel.s measured by C7C duruig the onsite visit as well as the measureraent
O data containcd i.n the FCC proof test data provided by Comcast coiifinn that the system exr,eeds
the FCC miniuiu.ui performance criteria for cable systcros. Fuxt.her, we found that the cable
network and transuussion system transports sigr►als to the subscriber "ith a level of sigual quality
that is highly comparable ,Arith the quality to the signals observed at-the headend.
1.2 Cable Network I'hvsical Plant
In addition to the system testing, CTC inspected the physical cable plant occupying publ.ic and
private rights-of-ways. With regard to the transmission plant inspected on the utility poles and
underground cablc plant, Nve found tlie cable plant to be in gencrally good-to-very good coudition
in relalionship to other cable systems that we have inspected, and more specifically, witli
relationship to the other utilities sen,ina the City. There werc no obvious problems identified,
such as hanging cables, uussiue cable guy guarcis, or ungoundEd cable plant. We observed that polc-inounted power supplies Nvere locked anci properly grounded as required.
Wich regard to subscribcr drop cables that connect subscriber residences to the cable system, wc
founcl a significant number of cable drops that were not compliant with the current elcctrical codE.
More detailed information regarding t~ic non-compliant drop cables is provideci in Section 5.2.
1.3 Public, Educational. and Govcrnmcnt Transmission Facilities
As part of our testing, we examined the qualily of the public, cducational, and governulent
~ ("PEG") channels. PEG channcls carry locally produced program.ming for subscribe•rs in Spokane
Valley and other communities served by the cable systei-ii. PFG programming covers a wide range

of video and 'unaging material produccd lacall.y by govemments and educational organizations -
i
such as the Citics of Spokane Valley, Spokane, local colleges, as well as locally produced i ~
i.ndependent programming. At present, there are no separate PEG channel assigned lo the City of "
Spokane'Va11ey . The program feeds for the existing PEG program.nung consist of dedicated f.~ber
optic links connecti.ng Che program origination centers to the Spokane headend.

metrapolitan area system. '1'he Spokanc Vtilley systems are served from the Comc:as-t headend
located at 1717 FBSt Buckeye Avenue in Spakane. This site includes all Iiradend Lquipmcnt to
reccive, process, and monitor signals far transmission to subszrihers.
The Spokane Valley system wa.s upgraded from a bandwidth of450 N414z to 750MHz cechnoloirv
during the 2000-2002 time pericxi. The upgracied system offers a wide range of analog and digit.►I
television channels, pay-per-%iew channcls, video on demand, high-deGnitioa tctevision, and hieh-
spc.=ed data services. The bandwidth in Mliz is a measwe of the systems capacity to provide
krvices to subscribrrs. The very newest cable TV systems have a capacity of up to 860 ;11Hz. The
C'omr,ast system has a capacity of 750 Nll lz - abnut 1 10 MHz less the most modern state of the
art systems. In the major tetevision markets that have 20 or more local N broadcast channel~,
this extra eapacity is oRen needed tu suppc)rt thc traditionsl cable prc,grainmine as wcU as the
many newcr interactive services.
In view of the modcst number oi' Ioxal bruadcnst statiuns in the Spci6ane :irea as well as tllc
upx.oming move by the FCC to all digital bmadcast stations by the yezir 2009, we find the 750

~ 2.2 Distribution Svstem
1`he plant distribution system is hybnd fiber-coaxial cable with fiber optic nodes and a maxinium
amplifier cascade of six, plus the optical node. ThiS is an acceptable cascade length in a recenlly
rebuilt system. The arclutecture is a standard design fnr cable systems upgraded in the past feNv
years (sec Fibure 1 in Section 2.1). "I"he average number of residential dwelling units passed per
fiber optic node is 1,000 or lcss; vvith a maximum number passeci of 2,000 unii.s. Thc electronic
equipment in the fiber node is capable of segtnenting the return pat.h into multiple patl-is s4 t.hat the
maxunum number of residences passetl on a return can be reduc;ed to 500 dwelling un.its. This
network segmentation effer.tively multiplies thc return bandwidth available to interactive scrvices,
. such as cable modems, by a faclor of four. Tt allows for an immediate uPgrade of the system by
simply inscrtulg modules into existing cquipinent to eapaud the network capacity.
Apprnx.imately one-tlv_rd of the nodes in Spokane Valley are connected to optic;al hubs which
expand the c;apacity of ex.isling fiber by creating additional optic.al wavelengtli in existing fiber
linl:s connected lo the headend. Comcast uses this relat.ively new techn4logy to serve Spokane
Valley and other adjacent couununit7es.
The upper system bandNvidth is 750 MIIz providing 700N(Hr doAmstream transmission capacity.
The upgradcd network has unassigneci bandwidth that can support additional services in the fulure.
Comcast engineers estimate that there are 186.8 underground nules and 358.64 aerial miles of
c,able plant, for a tatal of 545.44 miles. The powcr supplies for the cable plant are backed-up A2th
3 Ar 6 batteries that are capable of operating the system in the absence of ex-tcrnal pri.mary power
~ :k'or 3 to 4 hours. The power supplics have a remote status monitoring system that allows thc
system managers to remAtcly monitor the battery charge level and to alert the opcrators when
power supplies are operati.ng in the stand-by mode.
Based on the findings of our inspection, we conclude that the existing c,able network has sufFicient
capacity to support advanc;ed interactive cab1E servic:es, such as video on demajid, telephony and
high speed Intemet (cable modems). 2.3 Subscriber Channels
Thc Spokane Valley system provides 75 analog channels, 54 digital audio channels, and more than
170 digitdl channels. The Comcast channel line-up is provided in Higure 6. The Limited tier
consists of 32 analog channcls, whieh are a mix oF local off-air broadcast channels, importeci
broddcast cbarviels, and YEG services. tlll system subscribers reccive the T.,imited 'rier. The
Ba.sie Tier consists of an additional 43 analog channels that mainly provides satellite delivereci
programming.
Digital channels arc received from the satellites and re-Packaged or groomed otito the various
digital channels ca.rrieci on the system. Standard de6nition digital service (SDTV) subscribers use
either the Motorola Model DCT 2000 cnnverter box for standard (NTSC) format digital servicc or
the DC 6200 converter boY for the HD1'V servic;e.

~ 2.6 Public. Educational, and Government Channels
_l
The Comcast headend receives programming provided by thc PEG programniers on dedicatcd
fiber optic transmission links. The PLG programming in Spokane Valley comes from providers in
the City of Spokane. The following PEG program.m.ing is carried on the system:
e Chacunel 5: Spokaiie Cit}, Chamlel
• Channel 14: Community Production
• Channel 15: F-ducational Access
• Channel 16: Educational Access
• Channel 17: Educational Access
s Channel 19: Educational Access
The City of Spokane Valley currently has no local source of PFG prograsiuning. Thcre do not
appear to be aily technical bartiers to providing specitic 1?EG chamlels for Spokane Valley. This
capability might be implcmented by adding a channel to the currcnt line or by segmenti.ng the
sysle.m and replacing one or more pf'the Spokane City channcls with a Spokane Va11ey chaunEl. If
live origuiation or local program playback i.s desired, thEn a program feed line from Spokane
Valley to the Comcast heaclend will have to be unplementcd.
2.7 Cahle A'Iodem Service
Comcast provides high speed Intcrnet through cable modem ser-vice. The routi.nD a.nd control
neriwozk equipment is manufactured by Cisco and is located at the headend. The subscribcrs of
cable modem service access the Intemet through a nctwork hub conkrnller located at the headend.

M. PER:FOP:MANCE TES'TING
~
The PCC requirES semi-annual Proof-of-Performauce ("proofl') tests to verify the system meets the
FCC's m.in.i.mum technical standards. The tests must be performed onec in the wintcr and once in
the suinmer. The testing pracedures presuane that a sample of ineasurements taken for a number
. of channels at a number of locations across the system wri.ll be representative of the system as a
whole. However, the operator is required to bave all channels mcet the FCC uununum technical
rcquirements. The number of channels and lncations to be tested is determined usi.ng an FCC
formula based on the number of subscribers and the cable system design. Prior to the onsite test
and inspection, we rcviewed the results of the thrce most recent sets of proof tests conducted by
Comcast: Winter 2005, Suninier 2005, and Winter 2006. The test data and supporting
documenting were provided in an extremely detailed and comprehensive forni.
The FCC rEquires the tests to be Performed to ensure thaz all subscribers receive a basic minimum
lcvel of service. The Spokane Valley system performs at a level subs4ir►tially above the FCC
rrLnit„um standards. The FCC standards; if achieved, dcliver a picture to the subscriber similar in
quality to a good consumer grade VH.S video tape. The industry goal is to provide a picture of
higher quality, morc in li.ne v►hth DVD quaJity. Signal amplitude levrel tcsts and subjcct monitoring tests were performed and recorded for all analog channels. Further, the FCC requires cable operators to perform a more detailed signal
quality testing on a select number of auaing vidco channels to provide a quantitative measurement
of the system performance. For the 750 i%4Hz system, Comcast is required to examine 9 channels
,
in detail. For the 9 channels selected, measurements were made of the signal-to-noise ratio, and second and
third order distortions or other coherent disturbances. A hum measurement is required on at least
one channel. k'requency measurcments of both carrier and scparation are also required.
The FCC requires that each cablc operator measure and record signal leakage radiating into the air
from a cable plant to demonstrate compliancc with a cumulative leaka;e t.ndex ("CL1"). Signal
leal:age is caused by defects in the distribution hardware, Nvhicli can cause i.nterference with other
cammutucations signals such as aeronautieal.and navigation signals. To protect against these
harmful signals; the FCC requires that the cable operator checl: the CLI oF the cable plant at least
oncc a year. TI-ie CT T tests verify the isolation of the cable systcm fram the outside world. An
idEal cable system neither radiates radio frequency signals nor allows external signals to e_nter or
leak iuto the cable system. As a part of our testing, CTC used the Comcast lcakage test equipment
at each of the test locations to moiutor for the level of signals radiated from the cable system. No
measurable leakage was encountered during our tests. -
The required FCC leakage ineasurements may be accotnplished by eif.her cxtensive ground-based
oUservatious nr by measurements made wh.ile flyuig over the system. The most rccent flyover test
was conducted on August 21, 2005 by Martech Engineering a firm that specializes in performing
CLI tcsts. The Martech eertification showed tliat 99.64 % of the Comcast Spokane systein had
radiatinn levels below the allowable FCC lOµV/m field level and therefore is in Full compliance.

On April 19 and April 20, 2005, i.n coogeration with Comcast tcchnical staff, CTC perforrucd a
subset of the FCC pzoof tests at the headend and at four locations i.n the City of Spoka.ue Valley.
The headend tcsts 'were first made to confirni that lhe sio als as'sembled at the headed were
prpperly received and processed prior to transnussion on the system, and that they Nvere all
adjusted ta the same audio and vidco Garrier levels. Eacli of the analog and a few selected digital
channels were exanuneci. Starting with the basic tier, we exaiiuned each channel for picture
qUalin'• .
For the proof tests we selected 9 channels f.'ar lesting at the following sites:
• Test Point 1: 14220 Easl Mission, Spokane Vallcy Node SZE-3
• Test Point 2: Robic & l Oth, Spokane Valley vode S7EW
• Test Poi.nt 3: 10605 East Buckeye St. Spokane Valley Node SUWA
• Tcst Point 4: 3~' & Joel, Spokane Valley Node SDSA
A Stealth sienal levcl meter model SDA4040D supplied by CTC, anci a television receiver and
spectrum analyzer provided by Comcast was used to conduct tests of the signal level, carrier-to-
noise, hum, and subjective picture vie,.ving tests at the sites. The detailed test results are provided
in Appendix A.
Overall, the visual testing and quantitative measurements support that the system was operating
~ properly at all test points. Measurements were made with regular prograizuuiug to minimi~e
subscriber inconvenience. Typically, FCC proof ineasurements are made with the removal of
programming and may result in slightly better measurement results. All test poi.nts met FCC
rn.in.imunn tech.nical requirements.

IV. P:H~.'SICAL PI.ANT INSPECTION ~
A physical inspection of the cable plant, which included both underground and aerial construction;
xvas conducted in the area around the proof test sites. The inspection concentrated on an
examination of the quality of the plant construction, appearance, and compliance Nvith national
construction standards. The national inspection sta,ndards and authorities, along with descriptions
of the violations, are included in this section of the report. Accompanied by Couicast
representatives, CTC inspected cable plant i.n the public rights-of-way and at individual subscribcr
residence connections ("drops") in residcntial areas. These walkout inspections were focused in
the vicinity of the test points concentrating at the NIission and 10th Street sites. The arcas selected
far inspecdon represented a rcasonable cross-section of established, nEw aerial, and underground
areas for plant and drop i.nsnection. The areas were selectEd by CTC in concurrence with City
staff and Comcast representatives. Thc specific areas exainineci Nye-re in and around the

~ Thc second standard is the National Flectrical Code ("NEC") publisheci by the vational Fi.re
Protection Association; Inc., 2002 and revisions of 2005. Tliis national code cstablishes rules for
the safe installation of clectrical c,enductors and equiPment.
Other i.ndustry standards and authorities for construction and installatioii practices «7ill also be
mentioned as they relate to problerus we found that warrant correction.
]auring our i.nspection of the cable platrt in the areas around the test points dnd the drop inspection,
we did not find any infractions on the poles relating ta these codes. The folloNving sections address
ttie categories fcr violations of pbysical plant construction that xve look for in the public rights-of
way. .
4.1.1 Bonding and Grourrding
We inspect bonding and grounding according to iVFC and NESC aud industry standards for the
safety of «Torke.rs on the aerial and underground cables and at subscriber homes and equipment.
Grounding protects agauist injury from lightning and surges of excessive electrical current on the
system.
Grounding is rcquired for electrified systcm components at specified locations along the plant
itself. This is acconiplished by bonding the cable plant and equipmenl to the com.mon neutral
ground of the other utilities on the poles. Alternatively; when lhere is no other ground, the cablc
system is d.irectly grounded Nvith a ground roa at the site where grounding is required. Bondi.ng
~ creates "the pe.rmanent joining of inetallic parts to fonn an electrically conductive path that
ensurES electrical continuity and the capacity to conduct safely any current likely to be imposed"
(NTEC ART. 100). Thc authorities for reparting these kinds of.' violations may be found in the
follo,,ving: •
• NIEC, Rules 820-33, 820-40; and
• NESC, §092C, §0931a, §215, aud 5239.
iVo groundirrg or banding violatiom were founcl during our inspectiarr.
4.1.2 LashiMg
In aerial portions of the cablc system, the cables are attached to steel cables or "strand" that is
bolted to the poles. A strong ttiin lashing A2re is w7apped around both the cable and straud to
secure the Gable to its supporting strand. 'Cliis practice places the weight of the cdble on the strand
rather than on the cable itself.
15
Spokane Valley- 2006
Draft
Tniproper laslung can result in undue stress oa the cable and connectors, potentially causing signal
quality problems. If the lashing wirc bmaks and un.ravels, it usually causes the cable to fall from
its supPorting strand toward the ground, thereby reduci.ng clc:arances over streets, driveways, or ~sidewall:s and presenting hazards to vehiculaz and pedcstrian traff-le.
!Vo loose or brolcen lushing ivires were observetl cluring the inspectiorz.
4.1.3 Construction
The conslruction category addresses the manner i.n which the cable system is built. Poor
cnnstruction practiccs are evident in such violations as bolts ot' improper length, which if too long
creatE hazards for personnel climbing the poles, or i.f tno short fail to securc the cables to the poles
(NFSC §217A4). Other violations i.n this category includE missing bolts, strand that is not
attached to poles, strand that cioes not have the propcr tension, cable supports and spacers that are
missuig or improperly installed, and equipment that is improper for the system.
No constructivn vralations were observed in the inspected areas.
4.1.4 Clearances
Clear~ances of the cables from the ground, streets and sidewalks, and other uti.lities are specified in
national codes such as the iNESC §23 and NESC Tables 232 and 234. All cablcs on the utility
poles and underground,should be placc;d in a manner to avoid contact with one another. The codes
establish acceptable distances between power, telephone, and othcr communications lines placed lon the same poles and in the same area in the public rights-of-way or public util.ity easements.
Proper distance beitiveen cable television lines and other utility cables provides a level of safety for
all workers on the poles. The clearance distances from power lines and streets and sidewalks are
established io pemut safe and unhindered access to cables on the poles and ta avoid obstructioiLs
tn vehicular traffic and pedestrians passing under the cablcs.
iVo violations ti+jere abserved rn tlze inspected aretis.
4.1.5 Guying antl anchoring
In acrial construction, guy Aires are necessary to provide additional support to the utility pole
where thc wcight of cables on the poles is greater than can be safely suPpprted by the polcs alone.
. Guy wirES are required not only for poles that support a large number of cables, but also for poles
supporting very long spans of cable, and on corners or at the end-of-lines where there is also
additional weight on the poles.
Missing or improperly installed guy wires can create a public safety hazxrd because of a greater
potential for polc failure under stress from high winds, accidents, or pole degradation over time.
The steel cables used to buy the poles must be properly bolted to the polcs and anchored in the
ground at prescribed tensions. At ground level, the guy wire itsclf is required to be covered with a

4.2 Subscriber Dran-Rclatcd ViolatiAns
"Dropti" are the wires that connzct the subscritxr hames to the cable system on the street. Under
the :3EC, drops an reyuired to mw spcciiic construction standards for attachment to thc homes.
Tliese standards have requirements for attachment to the residence, clearancc fmm the ground or
depth of buried cablc, and gmunding to pratect against shock, cquipment damage, and firc
liarArds. Drop violstians include drops frons aerial plant down a utility pole to an undergmund
:ervice connection not being secureci to the pole and which may becomc inadvertently snaggcd
and discoruzccted.
Safety is a sigmiticant concem in installation and maintenance of drops. I•'or zrcample, a common
Operatur practic:e is to place a temgarary unburied drop to a bome serviced by underground plant. I
l-his can also occur when the gmund is frozen or snaw covered rind cable cannot k>e buried ai thc
time of installaiion. This may be acceptable far a few days, if pruperly guardeci or marked, but
«hen left cxposed for weeks it is aot only an annoysnce to subscribers hut presents a sufety hax..ard
in the public rights-of-way. "Ihese situaiions are alsa reported as violations. Strmdarcis for drop
instaIlalion and maintenance arz govemed by general{y accepted industry practices and by the
NFC §250 snd §820.

Whcre public utilitics are placrd underground, cable and relatcd cquipmcnt must also bc; placed
undetground. Cables are to be buried at swifled depths and at specificd distnnces from public
utilities. Whcn repairs or replaccment of the cables is nccmary, temporary exposed ` jumper'
cables are oficn installcd to maintain service while work to properly install und bury the new
cables is schedulyd. When temporary jumper cables nre installeci, the uiblcs should be marked
with tape or cones to aJert the public to the hararci and ta protrct the public from injury.
I'enporary cables must be replaced with prapcrly mstalled rables as soon as pvssible.
In other cases, cirops may tx installrd without prop-erly burying the cable in ordec to facilitate a

Sec. 76.601 Performance tests.
(a) The operator of each cable televisiou system shall be responsible for insuring that each such
system is designed, installed, and operated in a manncr that f.ully complies vvith the
provisions of this subpart. (b) The operator of each c.able television system shall conduet complete gerformance tests of that
~ othenvise noted below. Tlie Perforuiance tests shall be directed at determining the eateut to
which the system complies «itll all the technical standards set forth i.n Sec. 76.605(a) and
sha11 be as follows:
(1) For cable television systems with 1000 or more subscribers but with 12,500 or fewer
subscribers, Proof-of-performance tests conducted pursuant to this section shall uiclude
. ineasurements taken at six (6) Nvidely separated pnints. Howerer, Nvi#hin each cable
system, one aciditianal test point shall be addcd for every additional 12,540 subscribers or
&action thereof (e.g., 7 test poi.nts if 12;501 to 25,000 subscribers; 8 test points if 25,001
to 37,500 subscribers, etc.). Ln addition, for technic:ally integrated portions of cable
systems that are noC mechanicaily continuous (i.e., employing microwave connections), at
least one test point will be requireci for each portion of the cable system served by a
technically integrated nucrowave hub. The proof-of-performanec test poi.nts chosen shall
be balauced to represent all geograpluc areas scr-ved by the cable system. At least onc-
third of tlie test paints shall be representative of suUscriber terminals most distant from
the system i.nput and from each microwave rcceiver (if microwave transmissions are
employed), i.n terms of cable length. The measureme.nts may be taken at eonvenicnt
monitoring points in the cable nelwork: Provided, that data shall be included to reldte the
measured performance of the system as would be vicwed from a nearby subscriber
teriilinal. An identification oE the iustruments, uicludi.ng the makes, model numbers, aiid
the most recent date of calibratian; a description of the proccdures utilized, and a
statement of the qualifications of the person performing the tests shall also be included.

(2) Praof-pf-perforrnance tests to dctErmine the extent to w~hich a cable television systcm _
complies writh the standazds set forth in Sec. 76.605(a) (3), (4y, and (5) shall bc madc on
L l
each of the NTSC or similar videa channels of that system. Uiiless othenvise as noteci,
proof-of-gerformance tests for all other standards in Sec. 76.605(a) shall be made on a.
minin,um of four (4) channels plus one additional channel for every 100 MHz, or fraction
thereof, of cable distribution system upper frequency linvt (e.g., 5 channels. for cable
telcvision systems with a cable distriUution system uppcr frequency limit of 101 to 216
M-Iz; 6 chan.nels for cable television systems w7th a cable distribution system upper
!'requency limit of 217-300 MHz; 7 channels for cable television systems with a cable
distribution upper frequency limit to 300 to 400 MHz, etc.). The chanuels selected for
testing must be representative of all the channels within the cable television systcm.
(3) 'Yhc operator of each cable television system shall conduct scmi-annual proof of-
performance tests of that system, to dctcrm_ine the extent to which the system cnmplies
Nvith the technical standards sct forth in Sec. 76.605(a)(4) as follows. The visual signal
level on each climinel shall be measured and recorded, along «rith the date and time of the
measurement, oncc every six hows (at intervals of not less than five hours or no more
than seven hours after the previous measurement), to include the warmcst and the coldest
times, during a 24hour period i.n January or Febnuary and in July or August:
(4) The operator o£ each cable television system shall conduet triennial proof=af-performance
tests of its system to determine thc extent to which tlthe system complies with the technical
standazds set forth in Sec. 76.605(a)( l l). .
(c) Successful completion of the performance tests required by paragraph (b) of tlus - `section does not relieve the system of the obligation to comply Azth all pertinent
technical standards at all subscriber terminals. Additional tests, repeat tests, or tests
involving 'spccified subscriber terminals may be required by the Commission or the
local franchiser to secure compl.ianr,e Arith the technical standards.
(d) The prnvisions of paragraphs (b) and (c) of th.is section shall not apply to any cable
television system having feArer than 1,000 subscribers: Provided, however, t11at any
cable television system using any frequcncy spectrum other than thal allocated to
over-the-air te_levision and FM broadcasting (as described in Sec. Sec. 73.603 and
73.210 of this chapter) is rcquired to conduct all tests, measurements and inonitoring
of siglal leakage that arc rcqu.ired by this subpart. A cable television system operator
complying with the monitoring, logging and the leakage repai.r requirements of Sec.
76.614, shall bE considered to have met the requirements of this para.eraph. Howevcr,
' lhe leakage log shall be retained for five years rathcr than the two years prescribed in
Sec. 76.1706.
Nnte 1 to Sec. 76.601: Prior to requiring any additional testing pursuant to Sec.
76.601(c), thc local franchising authority shall notify the cable operator who will bc
aUowed thirty days to come into coinpliance with any perceived signal quality problems
which need to be correctcd. 1 he Commission may request cable operators to test their
systems at any time. r' ~

(ii) Shall be sufficient to prevent reflections caused by open-circuited or short-circuited
subscriber teruiinals from praducing visible picture imPairments at any other subscriber terininal. (10) The peak-to-peak variatioii in visual signal level causcd by undesired low f.requency
disturbances (hum or rcpetitive trausients) generated within the systevn, or by
inadequate low frequency respanse, shall not exceed 3 percent of the visual signal level.
Ivlcasurements made on a sinnle e.hannel using a single unmodulated carrier may be
. uscd to demonstrate compliance «rith this parametcr at each test location.
(11) E1s of June 30; 1995, the follow-ing requirements apply to the performance of the cable
television systcm as measured at the output of the modulatuig or processing equipment
(generally the headend) of the systenl:

insertion of appropriate siguals or by manual adjustment. Spccial signals inserted 'ui a cable
television channel for measurcment purpases should be operaleci at levels approximating
those used for normal operaiion. Pilot tones, auxiliary or substitute signals, and non-
television signals normally camieci on the cable televisiou system should be operated at
normal levels to the extent possible. Some exemplary, but not mandatory, measurement
procedures are set forth in this section.
(b) When it may be neccssary to reuiove the television signal normally carriccl on a cable
television channel in ordcr to facilitate a performance measurement, it will be permissible to
disconnect the antenna which scrvcs the channel under measurement and to substitute thcre
for a matching resistance termination. Qther antennas and inputs should remain cannecteci
and normal siLynal levels should be maintained on other channels.
(c) As may be necessary to ensure satisfactory serAce to a subscriber, the Commission may
~ v
require additional tests to demonstrate system performanc.e or may specif}, the use of
different test procedures.
(d) The frequency response of a cable television channcl may be detennined by one of the
following methods, as appropriate:
(1) By usui; a swept frequency or ainanually variable signal gencrator at the scnding end
and a calibrated attenuator and fiequency-selective vollmeter at the subscriber ternunal;
or (2) By using either a multi-burst generatdr 'ar verlical interval test signals and either a
modulator or processor at the sending end; and by usiug either a demodulator aud eittier
an oscilloscope display or a waveform monitor display at the subscriber temunal.
(e) System noisc may be measured usiu; a feequency-selective voltmele.r (feld strength
mctcr) Nvhich has been suitably calibrated to indicate R.dv[S noise or average potirer
level and which has a known bandwidth. With the system operativg at nonnal level
and witli a properly matched resistive termi.nation subslituted for the antenna, noise
power indicalions at the subscriber terriinal are taken in successive uicrements of
frcquctlcy equal to the band«<idth of the frequency-selective vollmeter, summing the
power indications to obtain the total noise power preseut over a 4 MIIz band centered
~ widiui the cable television channel. If it is established that the noisc lcvel is constarct
within this band"ndth; a sinje measwement may be takcn which is corrected by an .
appropriate factor representing the ratio of 4 MIIz tn the noise bandwidth of the ~
frequency-selective voltmete.r. If an amplifier is inserted between the frequency- -
selective vroltmeter and the subscriber tcrminal in order to facilitate lhis measu.rEment,
it should have a bandw-idth of at least 4 M:Hz and appropriate corrections must be
made to account for its gain and noise figure. AltErnatively, measiuements made in
accordance with the NCTA Recominended Fractices for Measurements an Cable
Television Systems, 2nd edition, \TOVember 1989, on noisc measurement may be
employed.
(f) The amplitude of discrete frcquency interfering signals within a cable television
channel may be determined with either a spectrum analy-r_er or with a frequency-
selective voltmeter (field strength meter), which instruments have been calibrated for
adequate accuracy. If calibration accuracy is in doubt, measurements may be
referenced to a calibrated sigiial generator, or a calibrated variable dt#enuator,
substituted at the point of ineasureinent. If an amplifiEr is used behween the subscriber
terminal and the measuring instruinent, approPriate corrcctions must be made to
account for its gain.
(g) The tenninal isolation between any rivo terminals in the cable television system may
be measured by applying a signal of knoHU amplitiude to one tcrminal and measuring
the arnplitude of that si;nal at the other ternunal. The frequency of the signal should
be close to the mid-frequency of the ehannel being tested. Measu.rements of terminal
isolation are not requirEd wheu either:
(1) T7ie manufaet°urer's specifications f'or subscriber tap isolation based on a
representative sample of no less than 500 subscribers taps or
(2) J..aboratory tests pe_rformed by or for the ope_rator of a eable television system on a
representative sauiple of no less than 50 subscriber taps, indicates tfiat the
termi.na] isolation standard of Sec. 76.605(a)(9) is met. 'ro demonstrate
, compliance with Sec. 76.605(a)(9), the operator of a cable television system sha11
attach eithcr such manufacl'urer's specifications or laboratory measurements as an
exhibit to each proaf-of performance record.
(h) Me,asuremcnts to determine the field stre.ngrth of the signal leakage emanated by the
cable telcvision system shall be made in accordancc with sta.udard enginee,ring
procedures. Measurements made on frequencies above 25 MHz shall include the
follo«-ing:
(1) A field slTength meter of adequate accuracy using a horizontal dipole antenna
sball be employed.
(2) Field strength shall be expressed in terms nf the RMS value of synchronizing peak
for each cablc television channel for wluch signalleakdge can bc me.asured.
' 1
0(3) The resonant half wave dipnle antenna shall be placed 3 melers Erom and
positioned directly below tlie systenl components and at 3 meters above ground.
NVhere such placement results in a separaiion of less than 3 meters benvicen the
center of the dipole autenna and the system compouents, or less than 3 meters
beriween the ciipole and ground level, the dipole shall bc repositioned to provide a
separation of 3 meters from the system components at a hcight of 3 meters or
morc above ground.
(4) The horizontal dipole anteima shall be rotate.d about avertical axis and lhe
maxunwn meter reading sha11 be used.
(5) Measurements shall be made Nvhere othe_r canductors are 3 or more meters (10 or
uiore feet) away fTOm the measuring antenna.
(i) For systems usiug cable traps and filters to control t]Ze cieliwery of specific channcls to the suvscriber terminal, aie.asurzments made to deternline
compliancc with Sec. 76.605(a) (5) and (6) may be performeci at the location
im.mediately prior to the trap or filter for the spccific channel. The ef{ects o£
these traps or 51ter.s, as certified by the system engineer or thc equipment
manufacturcr; must be attacheci to each proof-of-performance record.
(j) vleasurements made to deterniinc the differential gain, diffcrcntial phase and
~ the chrouunance-luuunance delay inequality (chroma cielay) shall bc madc ul
accordancc Mth the NCTA R.ecommended Practices for Measurements on
